Kebtek Cordless Electric Pole Lopper KT-940 — 40mm Cutting Capacity, Brushless Motor & Dual 2Ah Batteries

The Kebtek KT-940 Electric Pole Lopper is a cordless, professional-grade pruning shear that cleanly cuts branches up to 40mm (1.57") and converts to precise, hand-pruner-style trimming for detailed work.

The KT-940 combines a high-carbon SK5 Teflon-coated blade, a brushless motor, and a detachable pole to deliver fast, reliable pruning for hedges, fruit trees, and ornamental shrubs. Designed for both backyard gardeners and professional landscapers, this cordless tool is built to reduce effort while maintaining healthy, flat cut surfaces that support plant recovery. The kit includes two 2Ah batteries, a charger, lubricating oil, and the pole for extended reach.

How much branch thickness can the KT-940 handle?

The Kebtek KT-940 is rated for a maximum cutting diameter of 40mm (1.57 inches). For more delicate trimming, the trigger can be used to limit the opening to 25mm (0.98 inches), enabling finer cuts and safer control near delicate growth.

• Full opening: cuts up to 40mm diameter branches.
• Progressive control: long-press trigger reduces opening to 25mm.
• Suitable for small fruit tree limbs, shrubs, and thicker hedge branches.

What makes the blade and motor suitable for frequent pruning?

The blade is forged from SK5 high-carbon steel and finished with a non-stick Teflon coating to resist rust and sap buildup. Coupled with a permanent-magnet brushless motor, the unit delivers higher torque, longer runtime, and lower maintenance than brushed motors.

• SK5 steel blade: high hardness and durable edge retention.
• Teflon coating: reduces sticking and keeps cut surfaces clean.
• Brushless motor: improves power efficiency and extends motor life.

How practical is the KT-940 for extended or elevated work?

The KT-940 converts into a pole lopper by attaching the included pole, allowing you to reach higher branches without a ladder. Two 2Ah batteries are supplied so you can swap packs for longer projects, and the lightweight design keeps fatigue low during extended use.

• Detachable pole: extends reach for higher branches safely.
• Dual batteries: hot-swap capability to maintain continuous work.
• Compact kit: includes oil and basic tool for quick maintenance.

How safe and precise is the cutting action?

The KT-940 offers progressive cutting control so the blade opening can be stopped at any angle, enabling both careful, hand-pruner-style shaping and more aggressive cuts. The flat, non-stick cut surface reduces tearing and supports plant health while minimizing slip hazards for the operator.

• Progressive stop: press trigger to limit blade opening for control.
• Flat, clean cuts: preserves plant tissues for better recovery.
• Non-stick finish: prevents sap build-up and slipping during cuts.

If you need clean cuts up to 40mm with the flexibility to perform fine shaping and overhead pruning, this kit provides the essential batteries, charger, pole, and maintenance accessories to get started.
